© 2011 Gold Star Coaching All rights reserved by the author -----Magical Musings on the Law of Attraction----- WHAT IS THE LAW OF ATTRACTION REALLY? These days, most people have at least heard of the Law of Attrac- tion. For many, their first intro- duction to LOA came about due to the phenomenal popularity of The Secret in 2006. There was so much buzz about this topic at the time, that many long-time personal development gurus jumped on the LOA bandwagon, as if they had been there all along. The next mass wave came a couple years after The Se- cret when Oprah dedicated two shows to the Law of Attraction. Along with extraordinary interest in this topic, came great misunderstanding. In fact, many of those who watched The Secret wrote off the Law of Attraction as materialistic and shallow. If asked to define the Law of Attraction, the majority of people might call up the familiar “like attracts like” definition. Others might say it’s about attracting what you think about or they might cite phrases such as “what you focus on expands” or “thoughts be- come things” – that sort of thing. As Abraham-Hicks explains, the Law of Attraction is so much more than most people realize. The Law of Attraction is re- ally about understanding and accepting (re- membering) Who You Really Are and then do- ing your best to BE Who You Really Are. It’s about aligning your physical self with your non- physical self and living as a Blended Being rather than as a disconnected, partial being. It’s about connecting with Source / God / your Inner Being and receiving guidance, intuition, and inspiration in every moment while at the same time enjoying all aspects of physical life experience. It is truly the best of both worlds. Successfully applying the Law of At- traction REQUIRES a deep connection to Source and, thus, is the total opposite of materialistic and shallow. ii -----Magical Musings on the Law of Attraction----- The 22 articles included here are taken from my Magical Musings ezines written during the years 2005 to 2011.
